Swing States

Why can’t swing states count their votes?

They should have been preparing.

Instead, at their percentage points,

We anxiously sit staring.

 

Nevada’s six electoral votes

Are hanging there for grabbing

While every news reporter

Keeps on blithering and blabbing.

 

And what of Pennsylvania,

Also Georgia – almost finished!

My faith in our whole system

Has most surely been diminished.

 

South Carolina did its count

So why is North so lagging?

Are workers doing all they can?

A lot of tongues are wagging.

 

We’ve waited almost four long years –

Some hours more won’t kill us

But what I hope is when it’s done

The end result will thrill us.
